No wonder Rodders spells twat 'twatt'. Signposts have been confusing the poor lad for years.
Pretty sure there's a 'Gay Avenue' (or something like it) in Bristol.

They missed out the lovely Beaver Road in Carlisle, a classy street in a nice middle class area.

I have explained before, but will iterate why I spell Twatt as Twatt.
It is to do with stressing the double tt. It makes the person called a twatt sound like a twatt. After all, are not good old Anglo Saxons expressions designed to express what one says to another.
"You twatt" sounds better than "You twat".
How much of a twatt would the twatt appear appear if spelt twatttttt for example. It is only a way of stressing a word.
An old Army buddy's favourite word was Bollocks. We would spend ages trying to come up with different ways of stressing the word for different situations. Try saying it with different inflections and then imagine a situation to say it. You will be amazed. When stressed in a certain way it can be one of the most descriptive words we have.
A former officer wrote to the Telegraph describing his tank driver in Korea when he was deep in the engine compartment of his Centurion tank.
He asked the driver what the problem was to receive the reply, "The fuckin fuckers gone an fuckin fucked it's fuckin self, sir"
Concise and to the point and translated later by REME as the engine had thrown a con rod. Truly the fucker had fucked it's fucking self!

Stressing the double tt? That would be 'tttt' no? You mean double 't', which is, of course, 'tt'.
I don't understand how stressing the final t of twat is more expressive. Personally I think stressing the w is better: You twwwwwwwat!
Waddayathink?
